Stars’ Jason Robertson game-time decision, Miro Heiskanen out for Game 1

Reinforcements could be on the way for the Dallas Stars as they prepare to face the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Winnipeg Jets.

Forward Jason Robertson, who’s been out of the lineup since April 16 with a knee injury, is a game-time decision for Game 1, Stars head coach Peter DeBoer told reporters after morning skate on Wednesday, according to Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Free Press.

The 25-year-old forward was on the ice for the team’s optional skate.

DeBoer added that defenceman Miro Heiskanen, who last played on Jan. 28, is out for Game 1.

Robertson skated alongside Wyatt Johnston and Mason Marchment at practice Tuesday. He finished second on Dallas with 80 points this season and had a team-high 35 goals.

The Jets host the Stars for Game 1 of their second-round playoff series Wednesday at 9:30 p.m. ET / 8:30 p.m. CT.
